Default Can it be a mini-mini goal?

My first mini-goal is to get below 310lbs. I haven't been under 310lbs in maybe a couple of years, if not longer.

My next mini-but-oh-so-inspiring goal is to get below 300lbs. I haven't been under 300lbs in maybe 3 years.

Sure! All for the mini and mini-mini goals! When I started on my journey, I saw how far I had to go, how much I had to lose. As if climbing up a mountain... I did not have mini goals, and did not initially celebrate the little victories, but I was consistent, kept going forward, and saw results. Thankfully it did not happen to me, but I could see how one could become easily discouraged with that type of focus. It was later on that I started to celebrate the little successes. So I think it is great to have mini and mini-mini goals. And celebrate the victories. Any progress is progress worth celebrating. I wish you all the best!

Mini-mini goals are more than acceptable. My mini goal is to reach 220. My mini-mini goal is to reach 239. The more we break it down, the more we can celebrate and dance on the scale.

They're good goals and I'm sure you will be there very soon I still make minigoals as my goal still seems too far away. Well done on your weight loss so far

I love the idea of mini-goals. Today, my mini goal is to actually go to the gym, instead of just bringing my gym gear to work, and ignoring it. My other mini-goal for the day is to skip the Pepsi and chips that have become part of my evening routine. I think little victories can be just as sweet as big ones, and without the little ones, we wouldn't achieve the big ones!

I love mini goals! I like mine to be around 10 lbs and less is awesome! I need them to be attainable, and that 100 lbs I need to lose does not always seem attainable. But I can always get to my mini goal!

I'm a number cruncher and I like to reach percent goals, BMI goals, decade goals, century goals, etc., etc. and on and on. I find it very motivational.
